Mrs. Brown I learned that Lawrence recently passed way and I am sad and sorry to hear that. I have thought of you often since relocating to Charlotte, North Carolina and wonder how you were doing. I know that it must be very difficult for you as I can remember correctly you have loss 3 sons. God is obviously keeping you here for a reason and as I can remember you were a very sweet and loving person so I know that God will give you the strength to endure the pain. If he brings you to it he will you through it. May God bless and keep you strong. Lawerence is in a better place and with his father and brothers. Lovingly submitted.
